Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to analyze how hacktivism has been used by individuals and organizations as an effective communication strategy. Particular attention is paid to two particular manifestations: Jihadist and anti-system hacktivism. The purpose of both case studies is to analyze the organizational dynamics of these movements. The starting point is the thesis that the main challenge facing hacktivism (particularly that of a criminal nature) is not so much the viability of its operations, but how to reconcile its collective side with the individuality of its members.
